Hello,

 

If the image was created when the drive had little free space this condition can occur. At this point Ghost does not think there is enough room on the target drive (c).

 

You may be able to restore the image by using a command line switch -OR. This switch will tell Ghost to ignore the drive size. You will need to launch Ghost from your boot CD. At the command prompt type ghost.exe -OR

 

Note: there is a space between ghost.exe and -OR (O is a letter not number)

 

If this switch does not solve the issue replace it with    -NTC- and try again.

 

If the target drive (c) has actually been resized after the image was created you will need to return it to its former size or make it larger with a 3rd party applicaton like Norton PartitionMagic.

 

Even if the target drive has not been resized, these switches can fail. In which case the target drive will have to be enlarged in order to restore the image.

 

Here is the URL for command line switches available for Ghost 2003

Unfortunately, we no longer provide support for Norton Ghost 2003. Perhaps another user of the forum can provide you with information to workaround this issue. I apologize for this inconvenience.
